VCF files

Hello, I run this code for produce VCF files of samples that i work on it :

java -jar picard.jar MarkDuplicates \
  INPUT=/home/zr/SRR3229050/SRR3229050_sorted.bam \
  OUTPUT=SRR3229050_sorted.rmdup.bam \
  METRICS_FILE=SRR3229050.dedup.Metrics \
  VALIDATION_STRINGENCY=LENIENT \
  MAX_FILE_HANDLES_FOR_READ_ENDS_MAP=50

I want to sure this code is true? And I want to know how can I check that my vcf files that produced are true and valid?

gatk vcf homo-sapiens

this code is part of a larger workflow that map the fastq to bam file before calling the VCF. But this code alone is unrelated to the VCF format.
